FWIW, I run xen on RHEL5.2 and this is all pretty much setup for you there.
 The networking scripts handle the creation of the "bridge" for you, but I
believe it is still up to you to setup the sysctl/iptables correctly so
that natting/forwarding work.  It's been a few months since I got it setup
though, so I forget if I had to do any voodoo, but I have my vm's hiding
quietly behind a private network here at work (the desktop team does not
appreciate rogue dhcp servers breaking things...)
